Thanks all for the input.
I've been doing some research on Google and I think that if I weld the crack I'll be stick welding using a special cast iron rod. However I have just remembered that I repaired the countershaft bracket on my lathe (a complete break rather than a crack) by brazing.
Given that the crack is small has hopefully been "stopped" by drilling I think a braze repair should be OK.
Any comments?
Cheers
Howard
